The first teaser for the anime adaptation of ‘Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout’ got all fans excited. It will show the protagonist Ryza’s beginnings as an adventurer and an alchemist. Until now, we only knew that it would premiere in the summer of this year.
Now the staff has revealed more information that will end the suspense.
The official website for ‘Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout’ revealed a new promo and key visual on Saturday. The promo reveals the opening theme song, more staff members, and the release date of July 1.
The video shows Kurken Island, where the story begins. Ryza is seen running through the town and looks at a landmass on the other side of the sea. Later, she accompanies Lent and Tao on a boat. We also get a first look at Klaudia, Lila, and Empel.
In the background, the opening song “Golden Ray” by Sangatsu no Phantasia is played.
‘Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout’ will premiere on Tokyo MX, Gunma TV, BS11, Tochigi TV, YTV, and TV Aichi.
Apart from Ryza, the new visual shows Lent, Tao, and Klaudia standing behind her.
The following main staff members are handling the series:
